Hi, I’m Alan Jordan. I am originally from Co. Mayo and now living and working in Limerick city. In the early nineties, my third level studies were in psychology, Irish and English literature. My training in psychotherapy began with the Féin-Mheas Certificate in Counselling at the University of Limerick, followed by the one-year Personal Development Programme with the Irish Gestalt Centre. I then completed four years training on the Grad. Dip. and M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy in U.L. This training meets the criteria of IAHIP, IACP and the EAP. I am accredited with IAHIP and abide by their code of ethics. My two-year clinical placement in Limerick Social Services counselling service entailed working with people with a wide variety of presenting problems, wishes and needs. Music is a big passion of mine and I also hold a degree in music.
Therapist Integrity
Rigorous psychotherapy training requires the trainee therapist to engage in a significant amount of individual and group therapy. I believe in continuing on this work, which helps me to grow as a person. This enhances my ability to be present to you, the client, and to understand and respect the challenges you face. I work with therapists who are skilled and who travel their own journeys with integrity. I am grateful to all my teachers past and present in psychotherapy.
I strictly adhere to the code of ethics of IAHIP in regards to client confidentiality. Your privacy is important to me because this is the basis for the development of safety and trust in our work together.
